Hughes -> Trbo (no brainer here)

Magoulias -> Randall (even if Randall gets 20PPG off the bench, he'll make enough cash, similar to Walters).

BBrailey -> JTB (wouldn't normally do this but I need to free up cash to go Lomax -> Cleary next week.)

Team after trades: $399K ITB, ranked 1480th

Api
Haas, Carrigan
Lolo, Arrow, Lucy
Croft, Mann
Lomax, Capewell
Drinky, Papy, Turbo

Grant, E Katoa, JTB, Rudolf

Randall, Luai, JHop, Wiliame

Mind you if it does happen it won’t be named that way tomorrow and would only be announced 6:55pm on Friday Night.

Can you pick up Trbo without trading out Aubs? (i.e. for Walters) If you can, just make sure you aren’t blowing a trade on MoFo because of Fomo.
I would also be thinking long and hard about Crichton. If Aubs is named on the bench then different story but there is a bit of a pattern emerging of anticipating shit that might happen and acting on it before it does.
I would prioritise getting a gun in a position you need one (Tommy to WFB is good) and covering any holes in your squad that TLT might throw up.

Does anyone know if Hipgrave passed the 'eye test'? I was too busy following Lolo. Looks like he got through 80 minutes and scored a reasonable 33 (with 14 demerits). Looking at him as an alternative cash cow to Fog and more reliable 17/18th man, provided Bryce stays away from team lists.

Feels mighty risky around these well-informed parts, but seen enough this weekend to know the sort of player I think you want and I would put all of Teddy, Ponga, Turbo and Munster in no particular order above him. I would put Cleary on par with DCE and even then feels marginal with Cleary a really traditional (brilliant, mind) number 7.

George Williams showed there is absolutely still a place for the proper number 7 at the weekend, but otherwise I want quick ball runners around the ruck. Nearly every hooker scored higher than him though. As a POD, Brandon Smith will be in my team if he sees an increase in minutes.

They’re my musings for this TLT eve!
